SUMMARY:Opening Reception: NH NOW exhibit

Nearly 50 photographers traveled throughout the state between 2018 and 2020\, making thousands of images that collectively create a twenty-first-century portrait of the people\, places\, culture\, and events in New Hampshire. This project documents contemporary life in our state\, in much the same way that photography projects of the past have done\, such as Walker Evans and Dorothea Lange during the Great Depression and Lewis Hines when he visited the mills of Manchester in the early 1900s. Fifty photographs will be on view at the Historical Society of Cheshire County including many Monadnock region photographs as well as works from other regions of New Hampshire.  The project director is seventh NH Artist Laureate\, Gary Samson. \nEight separate exhibitions of photographs from the New Hampshire Now collection will open simultaneously at partnering venues around the state on October 1\, 2021. \nThe locations are:  \n\nNew Hampshire Historical Society\, Concord\nManchester Historic Association\nMuseum of the White Mountains\, Plymouth State University\nHistorical Society of Cheshire County\, Keene\nPortsmouth Historical Society/Discover Portsmouth\nColby-Sawyer College\, New London\nBelknap Mill\, Laconia\nTillotson Center\, Colebrook

SUMMARY:All is Fair in Art and War: Abbott Thayer Sets the Stage
DESCRIPTION:All is Fair in Art and War: Abbott Thayer Sets the Stage\nWednesday\, July 28\, 6:00 pm\nVia Zoom – click here to register: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_uckjnLVJTnKj_hQeRdbzdw\nThe life and work of Abbott Thayer (1849-1921)—Cheshire County resident\, natural historian\, and a leading American artist in his day—act as prologue to the ideas underpinning the successes of the Ghost Army. Convinced that his perceptual skills as an artist led him to solve problems that scientists could not\, he immersed himself in intense observation of Dublin’s woodlands and made revelations with far-reaching implications that landed on the desks of Churchill and Roosevelt during World War II. This richly illustrated presentation will take a deep dive into the lessons that this local artist\, known around the world as the “inventor of camouflage\,” learned from the local landscape and that forever changed the landscape of war. \nApril Claggett\, who will present this talk\, is an artist and art historian with a background in Environmental Studies. She lives in Dublin. She teaches art at Colby Sawyer College and Franklin Pierce University and exhibits her work nationally and internationally. www.aprilclaggett.com\nTo register for this event: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_uckjnLVJTnKj_hQeRdbzdw

SUMMARY:The Not-So-Good Life of the Colonial Goodwife
DESCRIPTION:EVENT UPDATE:  Wed. May 19\,2021.  7pm. \nOnline program Register here :\nThe Not-So-Good Life of the Colonial Goodwife\nBinge-watch Vikings\, Game of Thrones\, or Outlander\, and you’ll see people being disemboweled\, tortured\, and decapitated – but you won’t see anything about menstruation\, chamber pots\, birth control\, breastfeeding\, or poopy babies.  Even though Google cars have been invented and women won the vote almost 100 years ago\, these “unsanitary” subjects still make people uncomfortable.\n\nThe Historical Society of Cheshire County is tackling these and other topics on Wednesday\, May 19th at 7pm.  This presentation isn’t about spinning wheels or quilting bees – it explores the engrossing “taboo” subjects omitted from history. Ehris Urban and Velya Jancz-Urban’s enthusiastic delivery is funny and frank. Laugh\, grimace\, and honor our foremother’s journeys while learning about the little-known issues faced by New England’s colonial women.\n\nThis program is offered free to the public thanks in part to the Putnam Foundation and New Hampshire Humanities.

SUMMARY:Annual Meeting & Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Online Event ~ Registration is required click here\n\n\nThree Years in Camp and Hospital: the tales and tunes of Stoddard’s Elbridge W. Locke\n\nFrom History of Cheshire and Sullivan Counties\, New Hampshire 1886: “The most widely known member of the Locke family is ELBRIDGE W. LOCKE\, who\, as a writer of short poems and songs\, a composer of music\, and a pubic singer\, has a reputation the family may well be proud of. Sent to the army by President Lincoln to sing for the soldiers\, he became army postmaster and often associated as nurse in the hospitals at the front\, and long before the three years of his time with the soldiers that had expired\, he was probably known to more soldiers than any other civilian in the country. His book\, “Three Years in Camp and Hospital\,” had a large sale\, and the “boys in blue” who saw him mounted on a stump of a tree\, with a brigade of three thousand men packed around him\, listening to the stirring songs and amusing stories\, will never forget him.” In this class we will read excerpts of Locke’s engaging and salty memoir\, “Three Years in Camp and Hospital”\, listen to a selection of his songs\, and learn about some of his musical contemporaries in the Monadnock Region.\n\n— \n\nwww.jaziminamacneil.com
